Firetree – Vanuatu, 100% Dark Chocolate

Description

TASTING NOTES

This 100% chocolate bar, strong cocoa flavour defined by red fruits.

ABOUT THE MAKER

Firetree’s founders, David Zulman and Martyn O’Dare, possess a wealth of chocolate expertise and passion. David ran a large confectionery business in his native South Africa before coming to the UK, and Martyn spent many years setting up factories all over the world for both Cargill and Cocoa Barry. Back in 2017, they joined forces to create a unique small-batch, single-estate craft chocolate company in the UK. The inspiration for their name comes from the cocoa tree’s yellow, orange, and red pods, which from a distance make the tree look like it’s on fire.

THE BEANS

The beans used to produce this bar originate from the volcanic island, Malekula, in Vanuatu. Grown in volcanic soil, the cocoa has complex set of specific flavours, including lemon, white grape and cherry.
